LibriVox recording of A Study in Scarlet, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Read by Ashleighjane.

A Study in Scarlet is a detective mystery novel written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, introducing his new character of Sherlock Holmes, who later became one of the most famous literary detective characters. He wrote the story in 1886, and it was published the next year. The book's title derives from a speech given by Holmes to his sidekick Doctor Watson on the nature of his work, in which he describes the story's murder investigation as his "study in scarlet": "There’s the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it." Although Conan Doyle wrote 56 short stories featuring Holmes, A Study in Scarlet is one of only four full-length novels in the original canon. The novel was followed by The Sign of Four, published in 1890. A Study in Scarlet was the first work of fiction to incorporate the magnifying glass as an investigative tool. (Summary by Wikipedia)

Subject: Excellent reading
It's Holmes, need I say more? Oh, for those who don't know, here is where Holmes meets Watson. :-)

The bad guy isn't really as bad as you think. Sometimes justice comes in strange forms.

Ashleighjane did an awesome job with the reading.
